I Met You Lyrics
Thought that I'd be happy
Gonna be so happy living life alone
And never sharing anything
Thought that I was finished, Thought that I was complete
Thought that I was whole instead of being half of something
Thought that I was growing, growing older
Wiser, understanding why this world hold nothing for my spirit
Thought that I was destined, destined to be nothing, destined
To be nothing in this world and then I Met You.
I Met You
Thought that God had failed me
Thought my prayers were useless
Thought that he would never give the chance for me to praise him
Thought the book was written
Thought the game had ended
Thought the song was sung and I could never sing another
Thought my faith was misplaced
Thought my back was broken
Broken by a weight that I was never fit to carry
Thought I knew this city, thought I knew all about It
And then one night I went to Morningside and you were waiting
Then I Met You.
Gonna be so happy living life alone
And never sharing anything
Thought that I was whole instead of being half of something
Thought that I was growing, growing older
Wiser, understanding why this world hold nothing for my spirit
Thought that I was destined, destined to be nothing, destined
To be nothing in this world and then I Met You.
Thought my prayers were useless
Thought that he would never give the chance for me to praise him
Thought the book was written
Thought the game had ended
Thought the song was sung and I could never sing another
Thought my faith was misplaced
Thought my back was broken
Thought I knew this city, thought I knew all about It
And then one night I went to Morningside and you were waiting
Then I Met You.

It's funny that the proclaimers are known for the 500 miles song when this song is much more brilliant. The lyrics speaks volumes of their talent, plus I can relate to it in such an amazing way.
Can't believe no one has commented on this great song... i agree with finn, they are known for 500 miles but this is such a great song it should be atleast as well known. it tells a story about how he thought that was it in his life and there is no were to go and its the best its gonna be. but then he meets as i think a girl who shows him there is more to life.
Agreed! This song is absolutely, freaking, AMAZING! They should play this all over the radios.
